Default British Ultima GTR 0-100-0 world record holder

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuvBLWciOXs

9
.4 secs from 0-100 then back down to a stop. The Bugatti Veyron does it in 9.9 secs.

Known almost exclusively as a "kit car", each Ultima GTR can range in peak horsepower depending on what the owner request. The car used to set the record in the video is powered by a 427 ci chevrolet LSx powerplant mated to a turbo charger as all Ultima GTR's but this one is set conservatively @ 720 to the wheels.

0-60 = 2.6 secs
0-100 = 5.3 secs

Great kit car, heard a lot of good things. I've always wondered why Top Gear has never featured this car on their show.
